 Globalism the International Art Market and Society

We live in a society that is ruled by how much money we can attain, and for what?  Mostly to enjoy life .What kind of lifestyles do we get to actually live? It gets to be a bit much . 

Are we part of the solution? What is of it when it comes to international art markets, how do you protect yourself and your property.

When it comes to international art investment, we travel to other countries to exhibit, network to make contacts in person. In the past, I traveled to countries and I did my research. I cant stress this enough be careful of visiting any country that does not have a human rights record. You need to be extra careful, people never consider if things could go wrong. Culture ,customs and laws can differ from your own country. This is respective of international art shows.

 Luckily I had enough resources to protect myself in safety and be around the right people to ensure I would be safe. I learn the horror stories of Women that travel to foreign countries with unfortunate fates. I visited the UAE without a problem. I researched first and I was careful.

 It was expensive  however  I paid for my safety and contacts and my return on my investment took many years. I would have been better off sending a small work or a post card. Was it worth the adventure, since it has been many years since my first visit. I will always wonder. I have stuck to Canada, I do not need to ship my pieces, worry about losing pieces or having my work held in customs. Exhibiting online is one of the better ways, make sure you have an agent to protect yourself as your art work represented is important. They can handle foreign sales when you may not be prepared to handle international sales.

 There are always haves and have nots, every where on this planet. I represent myself with luxury in my professional life as an Artist with the appreciation of nature, years to understand diversity and as a Creator , years of working with Photographers and into Photography myself as an extension of painting.  You consider art work that is acceptable in your own country and not acceptable in others. The content is sensitive, respect the  laws and customs.

  Using Social Media to promote your work, that you are unable to connect socially, Artists need social media to an extent to promote their work online. Paying an agent with experience in Social Media may make it better for sales, there are no guarantees.

 Social media is about status, be as honest as possible about yourself, your art. I actually, in reality, I live a modest and humble life as a creative person. I create paintings, photography, I model on occasion for photographers, I was singing and performing also.

 Does it make life that much better? Yes and No.  Social Media is all about status and a showing of status and influence. I don't know how I feel about it. For some it is fortuitous, while for others is a trap. There is a very serious dark side. You need to do your research your experience may not be the same as another person. Many developing countries are exhibiting art, you have to be careful of visiting any foreign country.

 A society of show boats all socially engineered and socially engaged.  Many people would rather have a car, let alone a luxury car or house, food, than to live in poverty or to even ever know how it is to struggle, others live simple, others will not ever have enough. Be selective as to what art market you want to participate in it is your career.

 Getting lured by phony investors. The truth is there are Cons in the international art market, make sure the show you apply for has a good reputation. 

Glitz and Glamor lifestyles.  Make certain you protect yourself when visiting a foreign country for an exhibit. There are deceptive people in foreign countries, you need to be careful or have a travel companion or security with you on foreign shows or a team of people looking out for your interests are reputable with a good standing.

What disgusts me to the core, is how extreme wealth meets extreme corruption in  Globalist nations, where human trafficking exists, sex slavery, slave labor, slave labor to make luxury items and so much is done how people are treated so  in humanely.  Human violations of all kinds are increased. This is what you do not see is hidden away from the glamorous lifestyle the few have.

People tend to be kind or cruel the ongoing duality of good and evil. Humanity has to adapt whether the future has some freedom at all or is part of dystopia. I honestly do not know whether AI will make us extinct , transhuman or not.

 The world has changed, society sure had, is there a moral compass that works?

 

AI is having positive and negative impacts on society. I feel that to an extent it can ,how we make ,what we can make.

There are many factors that influence what I create and when. I have societal concerns and aware of what is going on in the world.

 Where are any limitations?  Setting boundaries,  Poverty and suffering of humanity has become as shameful, it ought not to be, developing countries are developing rapidly, sure there is a lot of corruption, the rich there are a lot of rich people that do great things, the Super rich their corruption seethes, actually do impact the numbers of  increased poverty, mass immigrations and country people's loss of sovereignty long planned for many to be homelessness, exploit, so many people suffering and  not able to make basic needs, people need to be treated with dignity,  what human beings do to one another, the world has always experienced it, at first it shocked me, to discover the increased abuses of social classes, increases in crimes against humanity. Very little is done about it. Make certain you are more than prepared visiting any foreign country with art.

 Social media, how people are lured, into thinking there is an opportunity  and the person is a Con. Many women are naive,  misled,  and become abused, as Women and Men into the sex trade in online prostitution and sex trafficked against their will, the exploiters, they travel to foreign countries for opportunities they cant get in their own country, hence the increased problems of trafficking,  exploit the poor wanting  opportunity, often against their free will, need the money and  forced labor to the point of slavery, many are forced to live below the poverty line and get fed lies, of a better life, the good life, and become victims, money addicted, power addicted, sex addicted or forced against their will disappear or in death, or cant get enough of  the money. 

 We are human and need to make a living too with families and loved ones to support and bills to pay, Create illusions to satisfy other people's fantasies or illusions, others have met their needs .  What a world we live in all due to Globalism.    :Technology is being “deified” and people are becoming atomized, or isolated, which makes them susceptible to “mass formation” or “collective hypnosis”. This atmosphere allows a “globalist technocracy” to emerge, which is a new form of totalitarianism that differs from past regimes like Nazism or communism. This agenda is being furthered through narratives related to climate change and ongoing wars. " Geopolitics and Empire reference , Luka Goleš Babić: The Rise of Globalist Technocratic Neo-Totalitarianism

Globalism and technocracy has intentionally down graded societies for their own gain. We need to decide for ourselves what are our boundaries. This includes international art markets do your research.

 Few actually live this kind of life and it can be damaging, be careful. Globalist Billionaires The haves created the have nots have created unequal societies in Globalism.  Globalism looks good on the surface, it is very dark on the inside. We need to be mindful of this.

The abuses and misuses of technology on humanity and online sex slavery for vast amounts of money. I feel many online sites are attempting to normalize human sexuality to a very dark place of abuse. The Elites long standing power and control with abuse.

Should I have been modeling with an economy car or an old used beater, or a vintage car, because of my stance?  My life an an Artist can address controversial images, celebrating elegance over instant consumption and lust for luxury. Where is the balance that there is any? For some it does it means sacrificing more and  trafficking survivors take years that they ever heal from their experiences.

 Men and Women are buying and selling themselves into the  online sex trade, to have way more money, prestige and power. The illusions are as cruel as the people behind them.  There are people who are cruel and lack morality, and are cruel to others that do not have as much money, influence, wealth and power,  it is a business, it is big business,  why are people selling themselves online? I think it is dangerous to psychological health, to sell  sexual images online  because that is what sells. We learn the elites have been trafficking people for a long time. Humanity ending up in technocratic slavery, it is truly sad.

They do not always appreciate fine art let alone what I create as an Artist or support. I persist to keep creating art.In Art History, Artists use to use prostitutes to paint them. The Masters did this through out the centuries. The slave trade has existed through out  History to this  day now in the form of technology and Globalism along with socially engineered mass immigration as intentional.

I have limitations and boundaries as an Artist I am at the  boundary.  What is pornography is people selling sexually implied images of themselves or images of people in sexual activity as dark fantasy. The perception of nudity for consumption.

   I am selling fine art, I am not selling my images in a disrespectful manner. I am not selling pornography or to get people off. The human body had become a commodity and more and more Women and Men, LGBTQ also, are are using sex, selfies and social media to sell themselves online.  Today present times are about lust and instant gratification or a sexual nature. Your art has adult themes research the laws of that country in advance of your exhibit. The New Babylon, be very wary and careful of technocracy.

Be careful when selling art in a foreign country with respect to their laws.
